Perspectives in Biological and Chemical Sciences
0.5 Credit

Within the framework of the three areas of research strength (environment and health, biotic interactions, and structure and reactivity) in the program, this elective course will explore the fundamental approaches to scientific inquiry and analysis of data as it applies to different disciplines in biology and chemistry. Through critical reading, presenting research articles, and preparing research proposals in their field of study, students will develop an understanding of research planning and methodology, as well as an appreciation for the approaches taken in disciplines other than their field of study.
